Comments from the school:

Hi Sandra,  

Many many thanks for yesterday.

We felt the day was a great success despite our late arrival, plus you and your team were just wonderful and very pateint with our students.  They indeed had a great day and went home with very full tummies after the Chelsea Buns!   

Hopefully, we'll be able to run this trip again and if so, I hope to see you again next year, only next time we'll set out earlier!  

On behalf of Julie Kabia and myself, we thank you again.  

Regards,   Tracey Humphreys
